Not too bad through double glazing, a nice Sparrowhawk although the dove might not think that. :lol:
Although I thought I heard it chirp “who’s a pretty boy?” one last time. :lol:

Trying to get used to the Sony way of working. A Bullfinch, not a easy bird to get the eye on but the Sony has not done bad.

Eye recognition for birds works ok but will always struggle with black birds (or black headed) and black eyes. 

There is often insufficient delineation between the two shades of black. 

If the bird turns its head to gain a highlight you will see the camera lock on much better.

Chris not enough detail but my best would be a House Martin? Eric or Jeff may do better.

Thanks - they only settle on that wire for a few mins and by time I have the nikon they have gone! I guess they are on their migration flight.
